“At ARISE, we are asked to give our conversion experience. The truth is, ARISE was my conversion experience. You only realize you are not ok when you see Jesus face to face, and He is staring at you every day at ARISE. The most powerful thing about this experience is the passion and honesty of the staff and the students; Christ lives here in reality, not just in words. Love is a principle, not a feeling. ARISE shows you love, not just so you feel good, but so you can follow Christ and stand for truth. ARISE will change you life, as you truly begin to see yourself in Christ. Come to ARISE—be blessed, and bless others.”
